HomeMy WebLinkAbout1975-06-12 Min - Board JUNE 129 1975 The Special Meeting of the Board of Directors of the Truckee-Donner Public Utility District was called to order by the President at 6:30 p.m. ROLL CALL: Waters, present; Sutton, absent; Wilson, absent at Roll Call , arrived about five minutes late; Anderson, present; Craig, present. EMPLOYEES PRESENT: Hobensack, Kinzie OTHERS PRESENT: Don Strand, Tom Archer (in Mr. Joynt's absence), Bob Bowen AIRPORT WELL Mr. Craig reported that the Dart Committee has still not met with the Airport Well Committee. That meeting is tentatively planned for Monday, June 16. This matter was tabled -until the next meeting. INSURANCE PAYMENT Mr. Hobensack recommended that the approximate $9,000 insurance payment be made at one time if possible. He said the finance cost to spread it out over a year would be $305. Mr. Hobensack hoped by next month this bill could be paid. The Board agreed with this. BLASTING REPORT Mr. Hobensack reported that he has written letters to the Sheriff's Dept. with no answer yet, the Fire Department who answered that they no longer control blasting, and telephoned OSHA. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requires the person doing the blasting to be licensed and instructed on blasting. They are sending Mr. Hobensack an order blank to order the Code Section that is applicable. Mr. Hobensack stated there would not be any blasting until these things are taken care of and that somebody be contracted to do the District's blasting in the meantime. Teichert Construction has been written regarding their cost to do blasting, but no answer has yet been received. The OSHA representative said the District storing its dynamite in the manner that it is (with one part of the explosive in the ware- house and the other in the PUD garage), is acceptable. Mr. Hobensack said there would be no blasting done until information is received and if it becomes necessary for the District to engage in blasting, it will hire an outside contractor to do it. The Board still wanted figures on what it would cost to have a local person do the blasting-to compare the cost of an independent person doing it or district personnel . DONNER LAKE ELECTRIC CONTRACT Mr. Craig explained that the District has not complied with the Donner Lake Acquisi- tion Agreement which requires the Donner Lake system be kept separate from the Truckee system (physical separation and financial separation). Mr. Joynt has recommended and Mr. Hobensack agrees that a financial impact report should be done to see what the impact would be on the District's finances to comply with the con- tract. Sierra Pacific has waived the default to this in the past, but not in the future. This matter was tabled until after the Board talked with Bob Bowen. BOB BOWEN, INSURANCE CONSULTANT Mr. Bob Bowen was present to summarize the results of the work Glen Stice and he had done on the District's insurance needs. Mr. Bowen stated that the District's coverage on buildings had increased 25% on the value and accounts receivable coverage has been expanded. The burglary coverage has been re-written. The bonding is under a different form. Mr. Bowen has asked Glen STi ce to review the Boiler and Machinery coverage. Machinery, in our industry, would cover transformers and if one was damaged or breaks down, the insurance will pay the District for its loss resulting from its non-operation and expediting expenses. According to Mr. Bowen, Glen Stice is to submit an Earthquake Coverage proposal for the Board's review and possible adoption. Page 1 - June 12, 1975 t �� Bob Bowen . . . continued The liability coverage has been broadened. Mr. Bowen explained what the Umbrella Policy is. It provides coverage for $1 ,000,000 on top of the $500,000 liability coverage. It also picks up certain things that are not covered under the basic policy. It does not provide better coverage but is cheaper to have it in two policies. Mr. Bowen recommended that the Board adopt an emergency plan and contingencies. The plan would state what procedure would be followed if the building were to burn, who to contact in case of catastrophe., etc. Mr. Bowen informed the Board that all political bodies which are elected by the people will be going through a critical insurance crisis. Protection is being reduced and premiums being raised. Mr. Bowen felt the problem was with per- missive courts, public attitudes that somebody else is going to take care of them, and the jury's attitude toward public entities. Mr. Bowen suggested the figures on the State Compensation Insurance be computed over the past five years on losses and how much has been paid in premiums. He said there is a retrospective rating program whereby if the premiums are a certain amount and the losses are a certain amount, they can credit or debit the rate. He doubted if that review has been done in several years. He said one company saved $17,000 a year in Workmen's Compensation. Mr. Bowen felt Mr. Stice was a good agent and that the District would benefit from the change in brokers. He said in the long run, the District would save even without a loss. The Board asked that Mr. Bowen submit a letter stating the recommendations he presented tonight. Regarding blasting or explosive insurance, Mr. Bowen felt the District was better off from a rate standpoint to have the blasting contracted out. He recommended the District require the blaster engaged to present the District with a Certificate of Insurance naming the PUD as co-insured. Mr. Bowen said this was as if the blaster and the PUD own the policy and the PUD would have as plany rights under the policy as the blaster. This would satisfy the 1 i abili ty/fir a6eded. Mr. Bowen said the telemetry board would come under the Inland Marine Floater in that it covers property of others that is in the care, custody, and control of the insured or can be endorsed to name the District and the person who actually has title. Mr. Bowen asked that the District establish if it is responsible for the board in regards to insurance, and if it is, to endorse the Inland Marine Floater to cover it. He recommended the District obtain in writing from Dart Resorts who is responsible for insuring the Telemetry Board. Mr. Archer said from a legal standpoint, the District should have insurance on it. Mr. Bowen said this could be satisifed if Dart named the District co-insured on their policy. DONNER LAKE ELECTRIC CONTRACT . . . CONT. Mr. Hobensack recommended that Arthur Young & Company do the financial impact study since they are familiar with the District's financial situation. Mr. Hobensack suggested selling the District's surplus land to pay off the Sierra Pacific debt which was quoted as being paid off in 1983. The manager was requested to see if there is a resolution or policy on the records stating that the funds from surplus property must be used for water system improvements. The Chairman directed Mr. Hobensack to submit a written proposal on what parcels are surplus and his recommendation ontheir disposal . They wanted the maps to coincide with the appraisals made some time ago. The Board asked that Mr. Hobensack do the impact study to the best of his ability. They also asked that he write Sierra Pacific and notify them that we are studying the impact of complying with the agreement; and when this is complete, we will be in contact with them. AUDIT PAYMENT Mr. Craig said that Mr. Strom has indicated some concern over the fact that we have not yet paid them any money. Mr. Hobensack said that the February and March bills will be paid on June 17. The Arthur Young bills for those two months total $7,000. Arthur Young's letter of May 20, 1975, was taken up at this time. Mr. Craig read Page 2- June 12, 1975 Arthur Young's letter . .. continued this letter which explained the additional $7,200 charges on their bill . Briefly, they said the additional costs were due to considerable difficulty in the audit resulting from inadequate contract files and the accounting records did not supply substantial support for transactions. This caused increased time to examine the accounts. Their initial proposal submitted in November 1974 did not state the audit figure was firm and made no reference to additional expenses. The Board asked that Mr. Joynt render an opinion on his interpretation of Arthur Young' s proposal , whether it was a fixed fee or not. Mr. Archer said the proposal was not a firm offer because it did not state a firm rate. He said the Board should .... decide if they think the matters were reasonably i ncurred; or if they went above what the normal estimates would be, should they have sought the Board s authorization. i The Board asked Mr. Hobensack to check into if an agreement was signed engaging Arthur Young and if it stated the maximum fee to be billed for the audit. Mr. Archer recommended the Board determine if there was a contract before Mr. Joynt submits a recommendation on the legality. This subject was tabled until the next meeting when the Manager can report on the contract status. The manager was directed to let Brian Strom know that we intend to pay the $7,000 audit bill on June 17, 1975. RATE STUDY Mr. Hobensack said that a rate study is needed as promised to the community when the fuel charge was initiated. Mr. Hobensack stated he would like to meet with Arthur Young people to go over some problems that have developed in their accounting recommendations adopted by the Board last April . The Board asked that Mr. Hobensack let them know what sort of problems have arisen. The Board authorized the manager to proceed to work out these problems with Arthur Young. The Board directed Mr. Hobensack to contact R. W. Beck and Arthur Young to submit a proposal for a rate study by the next regular meeting of June 17, 1975. The manager thought the study should be done before winter. BUDGET ACCOUNTING STATUS The manager said the figures are not ready yet and should be by July 1---this matter was tabled until that time. The Board asked for a corrected copy of the budget which Mr. Hobensack said he could have that by July 1 also. The Chairman asked that Mr. Hobensack let the Board know what recommendations by Arthur Young on the accounting procedures have not been implemented. COMMERCIAL WATER METERS Mr. Hobensack said that all the meters that can be read, are being read. Some problems have developed with the reading of these meters. Mr. Hobensack said one of the problems in the Downtown area is that there is one meter for two or three business. The water bill is going to the one business when actually more than the one business is consuming that water. The Chairman was concerned about the approximate 30% of the commercial meters that are not being read because of being buried, broken, flooded, or missing. He said this caused an inconsistency which could result in a Class Action suit. Mr. Craig wanted to see an effort made to have all commercial accounts metered, even if it is only two meters a month that is repaired or replaced. Then set a limit of two or three years to have all the meters operable. The Board asked that the manager determine what it would cost in labor and materials to repair or replace the meters that do not work. REPLACING ONE OFFICE EMPLOYEE As a result of the executive session held after the last meeting of June 3, the manager was authorized to advertise for an office employee to fill the vacancy resulting from Kathy Rich's resignation. The advertisement has been placed and interviews will commence next week. Mr. Hobensack again recommended the hiring of a part-time office employee to keep the work up-to-date. Mr. Anderson asked that if the preparation of the minutes would enable the Board secretary to have more free time. The verbatim minutes take considerably more time than those that are summarized. Page 3 - June 12, 1975 1 V 7 Part-time Office Help . . . continued Mr. Anderson asked Mr. Archer if the tapes of the Board meetings could be made the legal record of the meetings and have a one or two page summary of the what was decided at the meetings. Mr. Archer said this could be done by Board resolution. The Board members present were in favor of this. This matter was tabled until the next regular meeting. SIERRA PACIFIC POWER COMPANY RATE CASE The Board unanimously agreed that Mr. Hobensack should direct Martin McDonough to petition the Federal Power Commission for a re-hearing on the 1973 rate case with Sierra Pacific Power Company. The Board agreed that Mr. Hobensack should contact Mr. George Spiegel regarding a i Npfitill-trust suit by the District against Sierra Pacific Power Company. Hi Vferc atis n on what action might the District take in this matter was re- quested. Mr. Hobensack said Mr. Spiegel 's opinion is not cheap, which resulted in the suggestion that possibly Cal-Pac and Mt. Wheeler could join in a cooperative effort in the anti-trust issue. DONNER PINES The overdue amounts to the Donner Pines accounts have been received. Mr. Hobensack suggested the District require Donner Pi nes, or the new owners of the development should it be sold, be required to put the electric lines underground in lieu of moving the building that was constructed atop the PUD's easement. There was lengthy discussion regarding the unsafe, improper wiring of the service wire to the subject condominiums. Mr. CRaig wanted to see the triplex wire removed now since the bank controlling the financial operation of Donner Pines requested that all the power be disconnected to the condominiums with the exception of the night watchman. Subject to finding out if all the buildings are condemned, Director Waters moved and Rex Anderson seconded that all the wire that does not meet County, State, or National Code be removed. ROLL CALL: Waters, aye; Sutton, absent; Anderson, aye; Wilson, aye; Craig, aye. SO MOVED. JOINT POLE AGREEMENT Mr. Hobensack reported that the Portola power company sets all of the poles and charges $3.00 per year and SMUD is a member of California Joint Pole Association. Mr. Hobensack said the Joint Pole Association might not be abad pole arrangement, and that he would have a firm recommendation by the July 1 meeting. The District owns 1021 poles that the telephone company is attached to and the PUD is attached to 347 PT&T poles. Mr. Hobensack thought that if we sold 40% interest to poles, that we would also lose the cable Tv rent; however, he said he would like to negotiate this arrangement with PT&T. MEADOW PARK PROJECT The manager said he was not opposed to connecting water and power to the proposed Meadow Park project which mainly consists at this time of a sprinkler system. The manager said there was a conflict on the position of the electric service -MM, that is not economically placed. He said he would discuss this with the engineer of the project to see what their reasoning is for the placement of the electric service. The manager was asked to order a commerical water meter for the project. DOWNTOWN FIRE Mr. Craig reported that at a recent fire downtown, he encountered some problems with the procedure that was followed by the electrical and water superintendent. Mr. Krajewski directed a lineman to disconnect a ci rcut that fed the burning build- ing. The lineman on duty did not know which circuit to disconnect because the recl osers weren't lettered. Mr, Krajewski , also being a volunteer fireman, Page 4 - June 12, 1975 y$ f Downtown Fire continued did not standby to acknowledge that the power was off, but continued to fight the fire. This caused another area in town to be disconnected, according to Director Craig. Since Mr. Hobensack was out of town to a convention, Mr. Krajewski was the only managing employee available. As a result of this occurrence, the reclosers have been labeled to prevent errors or oversites. The hospital standby electric service (which was also on the circuit that was disconnected during the fire) tests its standby generators daily during a full load. The generators automatically came on the night of the fire when the power was disconnected. The Board agreed that the proper procedure in any emergency that requires power to be disconnected to an entire circuit would be have one employee disconnect �-"- the power at one end and have another employee acknowledge the power is out in the area desired. The manager said this practice would be done in the future. APPA CONVENTION The manager submitted to the directors a brief summary of what was discussed at the convention in Boston, Mass. , which he attended during the week of May 19. They touched areas such as customer disconnection for non-payment, anti-trust suits, wholesale/ resale price squeezes, and the Northern California Power Agency joint action as a way to get cheaper power. WESCO CLAIM The verbatim transcriptions have been transcribed for the Board of Directors' meet- ings affected by the Westinghouse Transformer Claim. The Chairman commented that the transcriptions were slow in being completed. They have been turned over to Andrew Holmer, the Deputy District Attorney, for review. The Board asked to see the transcriptions. STANDBY CHARGE---VACANT LOTS The manager reported that NCR in Reno will key-punch the standby charges for water and electricity at a fee of $370-$440. The key-punched cards will have to be received by Nevada County by August 1 , and NCR has stated they will have the cards ready by June 27. Under this schedule, the Board could adopt a resolution July 1 which authorizes Nevada County to add the standby charges to the tax rolls. The Board authorized the Manager to get two sets of key punch cards from NCR providing the cost of the second set does not exceed 20% of the total punching price. The total revenue received from the standby was computed at $86,760.00, OF WHICH half will be received in January and half in July. BUCKET TRUCK The new bucket truck is due to arrive in July. The cost is approximately $30,000. The Bookkeeper looked into financing from Bank of America and Tahoe National Bank. Bank of America quoted 7% and Tahoe National was 8124. Tahoe National 's loan was contingent upon obtaining District funds in their bank. The Board wanted to see some of the District money put into Tahoe National Bank to split up the business and promote more competitiveness. Mr. Hobensack said the $6,000 downy ayment required by both banks could be obtained when the time comes to make the payment. Pac Power, the company the- bucket truck r--. is being purchased from, is making an attempt to sell the District's present boom truck for $7,500 which Mr. Hobensack said would satisfy the down-payment. The Board asked the Manager to contact Tahoe National Bank to see if they can lower their interest rate below Bank of America's; and if trey can't, make arrangements with Bank of America:for the $24,000 loan. The Board was interested in the payment schedule, monthly payments, etc. Regarding the specifications for the economy pick-up, Mr. Hobensack said he would like to put7.off going to bid as long as possible. The Board wanted to know how long the existing pick-up is expected to last before being unrepairable. BILLING MACHINE (computer) Mr. Hobensack said he looked at a Digital/while in Massachusetts. The cost was $12,000 Page 5 - June '12, 1975 1 q 9 Billing Machine . . . continued to $25,000. To view a machine in California would entail traveling to the Digital office in San Francisco. The surplus NCR machine the School District has up for bid was considered by Mr. Hobensack to be insufficient. He recommended to the Billing Machine Committee that they not submit a proposal on it. The manager proposed that the Billing Machine Committee consisting of Mr. Wilson, Mr. Anderson, and Mr. Hobensack travel to San Francisco to examine a Deck 310 Digital computer. Mr. Anderson had personal business in San Francisco on Saturday, June 28, and was willing to drive one way down. The other two committee members would fly back to Reno from San Francisco at a cost of $31 .00 per person one way. The Board authorized the trip and related expenditures. The trip would be on June 27. On July 1, the Committee will have a recommendation on which billing machine to purchase. It was hopeful the results of the rate study and the initial programming of the billing machine could be done at the same time to avoid reprogramming and additional expenses. BORROWING FROM REA The Board asked the manager to request an REA representative present at a Board meeting as soon as possible to discuss the possibility of borrowing money from REA under the existing $98,000 bonds which allow 2/ interest. The Board wanted him present anytime after the July 1 meeting. LISTING OF ACCOUNTS PAYABLE Arthur Young recommended the listing of the Accounts Payable be under the month incurred rather than the month received or the invoice date. The Board wanted to have the bills listed in the manner recommended by Arthur Young. PUD PROPERTY CLEAN-UP Mrs. Manetta called Mr. Hobensack and asked that she and her son be allowed to clean up the area west of the office where the white picket fence is located. The Board had no objections to Mrs. Manetta doing the clean-up and asked that Mr. Hobensack look into not having the Exxon Station's snow plowed into that area next winter. SURPLUS LAND Mr. Hobensack has gone through the property that he feels is surplus and would like to see the Board declare the parcels surplus to go to bid. The Board requested receiving the most recent appraisal figures and an area map showing as close to accurate location as possible- of the parcels. CORRESPONDENCE The Board discussed the June 9 letter from Charles Doskow of Dart Resorts re- garding the District's acceptance of the Tahoe Donner Water Lines. This letter makes reference to letters written by Ken Krajewski which Mr. Doskow considers legal acceptance of the system. The Chairman asked that Joe Joynt review the legality of Mr. Krajewski 's letters as binding the District to the acceptance of the water system. The Board wanted to discuss the acceptance of the water system with Dan Cook at the next regular meeting of June 17 and asked the Manager to set up the arrangements to have him present. The Board requested Mr. Strand of Dart be notified that this matter will be discussed in the event Dart represent- atives wish to be present. -o The Forest Service is considering a land swap of property located next to Aweeka's Trailer Park on Highway 89 in the Prosser Heights area. The Sierra Planning Organization has written and asked if the District has any objections to this land swap. Since there is presently a Use Permit for a PUD water transmission line across this property, the Board asked that the new private owners give the District an easement for the water line. The manager was asked to relay the Board's concern regarding the land. Mr. Lowell Northrop has written a letter to the Board requesting the District move poles located on his property as he is planning some improvements. Mr. Hobensack said he would look into this. . The Board wanted to know how soon these improvements are scheduled and if the District has proper easements for the poles. Page 6 - June 12, 1975 Miscellaneous continued Sierra Pacific Power Company has requested the District send a signed copy of an agreement. Their files indicate they never received the signed copy. Mr. Hoben- sack said he would research this further. Dan Cook has written indicating the Nevada County would like to place a drainage easement through the PUD-owned land at the corner of Donner Pass Road and Highway 89 across from Safeway. The Board reaffirmed their desire to have the easement go around the property rather than through it. The Chairman indicated he would like to see the District adopt the Basic Operating --- Rules submitted by Rural i to which outlines safety procedures. The Board favored this adoption providing the rules do not conflict with OSHA or G.O. 95. The manager was directed to see if the rules conflict with other safety standards and have a recommendation on their adoption at the next Board meeting. Mr. Hobensack explained what the $60 bill from Alexander Grant was for. Arthur Young requested some additional information from Alexander Grant's files and talked to Mr. Murphy of Alexander Grant which resulted in an hour's fee of $50. Phone conver- sations brought the total to $60. Mr. Hobensack asked Alexander Grant to give Arthur Young whatever information they requested, but was not sure of what they needed from Alexander Grant. The Board requested an itemized bill and a recommendation from the manager on payment. Prosser Lake Heights Improvement Association has written requesting the District to consider their subdivision's pump failure which could result in insufficient amounts of water to fight fires. The Board agreed that Dan Cook should be consulted and find out what is lacking in the District's system. Mr. Hobensack thought it might be involved in altitude valves. Mr. Hobensack was directed to write the President of the Prosser Heights Improvement Assn. to inform him steps are being taken to rectify the problem. The Boy Scouts of America have presented the Board with a Certificate of Appreciation for the District's assistance in the Boy Scout Scout-a-rama. with The Chairman presented the other Board members/various brochures and convention information that can be reviewed at their leisure. There being no further business to come before the Board, it was moved by Director Waters and seconded by Director Anderson that the meeting adjourn. All aye. The Chairman adjourned the .special- meeting of the Board of Directors at 10:37 p.m. TRUCKEE-DONNER PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT BY: ' ohn Craig, Chairman o t e Board Merrilyn Kinzie, Recording Secretary Page 7 - June 12, 1975 tom/ STATEMENT OF GENERAL FUND JUNE 139 1975 Bank Balance - May 30, 1975 1042469.88 Truckee Electric Revenue 479900.60 Water 49361 .48 Donner Lake Electric Revenue 16,703.59 Miscellaneous Billings Revenue 175.00 Miscellaneous Revenue 700.00 Balance of funds left from Managers trip to Boston 342.97 Allowances (261.84) IBEW (109.50) Dept. of Benefit Payments - State Dis.
